Michigan Pen Show

The Pear Tree Pen Company is proud to be a sponsor of the 2007 Michigan Pen Show, which will be held on Friday, September 7 and Saturday, September 8, 2007 at the Troy Hilton. Although the venue is the same as last year, the format is going to be somewhat different, I'm told. Perhaps the biggest change is that the show will be open to the public on Friday!

As compared to last year, our presence at the show will be expanded, both in terms of real estate and the number of products on display. In addition to our standard offerings of fine writing instruments from Sailor, Visconti and Monteverde, a not insignificant portion of our 3-tables will be devoted to value-priced modern pens from Pelikan, like the Pelikano, the Future or the Pelikano Junior, and from Lamy, such as the Safari and Al-Star. These are great every-day writers that give incredible bang for the buck.

As always, bottled fountain pen ink will be a Pear Tree Pens mainstay, and inks from Diamine, Omas, Private Reserve, J. Herbin, Noodlers(and more) will be available for you to test and, of course, to buy. We're especially excited to present Noodler's new highlighting ink, the Year of the Golden Pig, and its new white ink, the Whiteness of the Whale.

See you at the show!
